Online advertising
Sà-wàd-dii khâ! Welcome back to my blog! Today, we’re exploring a modern twist on how technology shapes our everyday choices—from discovering hidden coffee shops to finding favorite places all through online ads. Imagine going to a small, cozy café up on a mountain simply because an ad caught your eye on Facebook.

Grammar focus
Grammar Focus: Expressing Generalizations with “ส่วนใหญ่” (sùan-yài) - "Mostly"
"ส่วนใหญ่" (sùan-yài) is used to make general statements, often about people’s habits, common situations, or things that are true most of the time. This structure can be very helpful when you want to talk about trends or describe things that usually happen.
Examples:
- ส่วนใหญ่ฉันดื่มกาแฟทุกเช้า
Sùan-yài chán dùem gaa-fae thúk cháo
(Most of the time, I drink coffee every morning.)
- ส่วนใหญ่ผู้คนชอบใช้เทคโนโลยีใหม่ๆ
Sùan-yài phûu-khon châwp chái ték-noo-loo-yii mài-mài
(Most people like using new technology.)
- ส่วนใหญ่ร้านที่ฉันไปเลือกมาจากโฆษณาออนไลน์
Sùan-yài ráan thîi chán bpai lêuak maa jàak khôot-sà-naa Online
(Most of the places I go are chosen from online ads.)
- ส่วนใหญ่คนรู้จักฉันเพราะงานที่ฉันทำ
Sùan-yài khon rúu-jàk chán phró ngaan thîi chán tham
(Most people know me because of the work I do.)
- ส่วนใหญ่ฉันใช้โฆษณาออนไลน์ในการหาลูกค้า
Sùan-yài chán chái khôot-sà-naa Online nai gaan-hǎa lûuk-kháa
(Most of the time, I use online ads to find customers.)
By using "ส่วนใหญ่" (sùan-yài) with these examples, you can start creating your own sentences about common habits or generalizations in Thai!
